    The food was very good quality and great portions. Super roast and prawn and crayfish salad. Great starters and sticky toffee pud. As a party of two, we were shown to a table for 6, when there were two smaller tables free. The noise level was very high sat next to a 6 and 8 large groups. Also had to ask for music to be turned down a little, as could not have a conversation being right under the speaker. Please address this as your food , staff and service were great. Thanks.

    Wow.. all I can say is everything was stunning.. brought my in laws for an early Mother’s Day treat and everyone loved it.. The portion sizes were great! And I have never tasted gravy like it in my life on my roast dinner. My mother in law has not stopped talking about her prawn cocktail so we know it was good.
